P.s. as a trans, I always think of safety before leaving the castle, I also know there is a higher chance that i will be in a unsafe situation

That's what I was taught, take the leader out most of the time the toughest, and to hit though ... As humans just before we have contact we will slow down ... Hugz

Oh, and testicles are fair game ... Giggles

As a cis male with some kind of strong build, I'm rarely concerned about safety, and despite this once I got followed by two guys who wanted to beat the shit out of me because reasons (they mentioned some vague improper driving style, which was probably false).

I managed to evade the confrontation by locking myself in my car.

That was a scary experience, but it didn't leave any kind of trauma, and I still feel safe when outside.

This always makes me think about privilege.

Just like any other woman, I have to always be aware of my safety when going out. I carry my keys in my hand. If you know, you know...

When I could present as a dude, nobody touched me. I also learned the skill of being the fastest runner to avoid bullying, but never competed as I despised the hell out of competitive sports.

As a white cis male, I value the sense of security the Atlantic Ocean provides.

(Sorry for friendly fire, though.)

I’m old enough that it doesn’t matter too much anymore.

I appreciate how much worse it is for people who aren't in my situation too.

I’m concerned for everyone else’s safety but not so much my own. I do get concerned about the consequences for my family and friends if I was to get hurt.

I’m sure the fact that I’m a large white cis man contributes. I think my form of ADHD contributes more. In a crisis I get calmer and more focused.

I used to love the deep wide area focus I experienced flying hang gliders years ago, especially when taking off and landing.
